* Americans United for Censorship: Barry Lynn and Bob Enyart debate whether the government should attempt to censor a pastor's God-given right to free speech! While Barry basically admitted that the right to life is inalienable (i.e., it cannot be transferred, sold, given away, etc.) he actually denied that the right to free speech comes from God, and he also denied that the right to life is inalienable, and in a burst of humanism, Lynn actually claimed that the right to free speech comes from the government, which of course would mean that the government could be justified in withholding or regulating as it sees fit the right to free speech. Pastor Bob Enyart, of Denver Bible Church, told Lynn of their excitement and support for Alliance Defense Fund's Pulpit Initiative in which the ADF is asking for fifty churches to preach political sermons in September to challenge regulations that intimidate many pastors into silence on some of the most crucial issues of morality. Lynn also admitted that other organizations like labor unions and chambers of commerce have tax exemption yet are permitted free speech. Also, Lynn admitted that of the many complaints he has filed against churches for supposed speech violations of government regulations, he has never filed a complaint against Obama's Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, even though it is the most high profile politically active and partisan church in the country; and further, Lynn has filed not even one single complaint his entire denomination, United Church of Christ, even though they have thousands of socially active churches. But Americans United for the Separation of Church and State is not biased... right.
Post-show Note: Because of the time constraint, Bob did not challenge Lynn's evil claim that God's Word does not consider abortion to be murder. Bob left that for another show, choosing instead to not get sidetracked, and stay focused on Lynn's work against the Christian's God-given right of free speech. But check out the great list of verses in The Bible and Abortion at American Right To Life!
Post-show Update: Colorado's battle against the new Expansion of Prohibition law SB200 (see WorldNetDaily, Criminal crackdown targeting Christians) is "getting beyond the bathroom issue," Bruce Hausknecht, a spokesman with Focus on the Family, told WND." The censorship part of SB200 states:
Section 8. 24-34-701. "Publishing of discriminative matter forbidden. No person, being the owner, lessee, proprietor, manager, superintendent, agent, or employee of [associated with] any place of public accommodation... shall publish, issue, circulate, send, distribute, give away, or display in any way, manner, or shape or by any means or method, except as provided in this section [must refer to the 'unwelcomed' clause below], any communication, paper, poster, folder, manuscript, book, pamphlet, writing, print, letter, notice, or advertisement of any kind, nature, or description THAT is intended or calculated to discriminate or actually discriminates against... SEXUAL ORIENTATION, marital status... in the matter of furnishing or neglecting or refusing to furnish to them or any one of them any lodging, housing, schooling, or tuition or any accommodation, right [like marriage], privilege [like adoption], advantage, or convenience... on account of... SEXUAL ORIENTATION, marital status... [which] is unwelcome or objectionable or not acceptable, desired, or solicited."
